Occupations

No, not like military occupations. Like jobs. I know you are always thinking war, aren't you?

I am starting a list of possible occupations I could do, if/when I ever decide to leave my glorious tech job.

Lawyer - I love to argue. I think I am fairly good at it too. And I will argue about anything. A big source of conflict in my marriage was what would happen if aliens landed. Serious arguing there. The biggest flaw in this plan is the 6-ish years of school I would have to attend. Errr....

Pilot - I've always wanted to learn how to fly. I don't think I would want to do it commercially though.

Lobbyist - This really interests me, because I'd love to make a difference. I'd love to help pass laws that helped the people of our nation. But, there would be a bit of schooling and a whole lot of unpaid internships. That will make rent difficult to come by.

Non-profit organization - I don't know what kind of non-profit and I'm not really sure what I would do, but this goes back to wanting to make a difference. I would love to do something that changed opinions of the lower class.

Alpaca farmer - Well, not just alpacas. I'd have goats too. I love goats. And alpacas. What a relaxing life that would be. I'd probably have to move out of the city, though.

Scientist - haha.. just kidding!

Zookeeper - So, I know I've done this already, but maybe an AZA zoo would be better. I'd love to do more behavioral research and less landscaping.

Concert Violinist - I'd have to learn the violin. I'd probably need to buy a violin. And I'd probably need some natural talent. But, once I've got all that, I'd love to play for the Boston Pops or something.

Animal Chiropractor - I considered this before, but again with the schooling. I need an occupation that I don't need to go back to school for.

Humanities Professor - I minored in humanities which is a useless degree unless you plan on teaching humanities. Maybe I could do that.

Daycare Provider - How awesome would that be?! I adore kids and to be able to spend more time with my own would be a dream come true. If I had a house, or something, I'd definitely consider this one.

Blogger - Hey, how cool would it be to be paid for blogging? Oh, but I don't want to do any giveaways or reviews or anything like that. So, yeah. You think I could get someone to pay me to blog about possible job opportunities?
